Christmas Eve 2008

Wow! We had such a wonderful holiday this year! Sharing it with Ella was definitely the highlight. It was so fun including her in our family traditions.

We started Christmas Eve off with a candlelight service at Lake Pointe. It was amazing as always. We have gone to this service a few times in the past and it has always been such a special event. This year Jason Castro was there to start the singing off. Ella did great too. She slept most of the time, but when she was awake she was clapping during the music and staring at the candle light.

My camera died after getting only 1 shot of Zach and Ella by the tree, so I wasn't able to catch anything else on camera.


Then we headed to our house to open stockings and gifts from my mom. She has done this for us for several years now, and it has become one of our favorite Christmas traditions!

We can't seem to get a decent picture of all the kids! Too funny!


Thank you Honey for my kitchen! :)

Melody and Travis


Coleson is going to be a big brother in March, so he got a neat book about being a good big brother.


Travis got some horns for his truck! Ha! :)


Can't wait to do it again next year!
